As some of you know I did a 2001 Pathfinder a couple weeks back for my college professor with the Adam's Lineup. I did her husband's 2001 Maxima today with the same regimen. I wanted to see how the Adam's lineup would look on this Charcoal Maxima. To no surprise, it looked great! The paint was absolutely glowing!

Interior
-APC/Oxy Mix on rugs and carpets
-Water Woolite to clean the seats, doors, dash, etc
-4* Leather Conditioner on the seats
-Adam's VRT on the dash, doors, etc. (love this low-gloss/matte shine!)

This combo made the flake jump! as well as created a wet glow to the paint. Here's another combo to try everyone...I think the results speak for themselves :)


Enjoy!
 
:wow The whole car looks great! :bigups

I'm guessing you'd definitely recommend Adam's VRT. How do you apply it and does it require some buffing after application?
 
Sean, you cease to amaze me my friend!! :bigups :bigups

I'm glad the learning curve on all the products you got took you all of about 5 minutes to figure out :lmfao (that's the way they were designed)

Revive a such a sweet product, and I'm glad you took notice to how it really makes metallics pop out. I especially like the rear quarter panel shot! The rotary is just one great method of application; by hand creates great work, by PC even better, and by rotary best....in the end, removal comes off the same easy way :dancin I'm happy it worked out well for you on the painted rims as well. We wanted it to be versatile, so you can even use it windows, metals, and such.

That's my favorite color vinyl for VRT as well. You'll see a big difference in the "fed" areas as opposed to the neglected ones for sure. Have you noticed VRT's lasting effects yet? How about usage wise (using more or less than usual)?

Once again Sean, great results!! :mohawk
 
VRT is great stuff...I love it's thicker texture applied with the cool top and huge foam applicator. You barely use any. I usually apply, do the entire exterior (2-4 hours), then come back and give a quick buff. No signs on durability yet as I've only used it twice. I will probably give it a shot on my dash.

I was very very impressed with the combo today. I know it looked sweet on silver but it showed it's true potential on this color. Once that sun came out, bling bling baby :D
 
It's OK. That'd look better with the wheels cleaned up and tires with more shine on em.
